"rrrrrring!"

it was finally lunchtime. you quickly walked outside towards your locker, keeping your books and taking some out needed for the next lesson. returning from outside, you spotted something on your table. there it was again, laying in the middle of your desk. it was a three-layered pink lunchbox, tied up with a matching elastic strap. pasted on top of it was a neon yellow post-it note. you walked towards it and picked up the note that read:

annyeong, (y/n)-ah.
i have prepared a lunchbox again for you today.
hope you will find it to your liking!
as usual, you can leave the box inside locker 1204 after you've finished eating.
remember to eat on time and don't skip your meals okay~ ^^
- kim seokjin

you sighed as you turned around to your friends and said, "it's this lunchbox again."

"again? yah, (y/n), don't you realise how lucky you are?" your friend reprimanded you.

"of course, don't you know many girls want to be with him but he only has his eyes on you?" another one said.

you were just an average girl in your school. your grades were pretty fine, since you scored at least a b in every subject. your body and looks were extremely ordinary too. you came from a normal family, both your parents being part of the working class that earned salary just enough to get by each month.

however, kim seokjin was the opposite of you. he was the most popular guy in school and many girls admired him a lot. he was crowned the flower boy of the school as his visuals were seriously no joke. seokjin was also a very smart guy, scoring a* for every subject. he majored in singing and had a very sweet voice that could serenade everyone. there were even rumours that he came from a rich family and lived in a 2-story bungalow in gangnam. seokjin was literally the perfect dream guy every girl yearned for, yet he openly confessed in front of everyone that he had a crush on you. of course, many girls were heartbroken and came chasing after you to 'stop harassing their oppa' no matter how many times you explained to them that he and you were nothing. ever since that time, seokjin would leave a lunchbox for you made by him personally everyday. his cooking skills were superb and the food he made never once tasted bad. you actually found nothing good in a guy like him. you always had the idea that popular and perfect guys like him only knew how to play with girls and not seriously love them. what good was it when he is only good-looking on the outside but is empty inside?

you opened up the lunchbox, revealing the different food in each layer. in the top layer was colourful kimbaps that were neatly arranged. the middle layer consisted of egg rolls and bulgogi. lastly, the bottom layer had side dishes such as kimchi and pickled radish. seokjin even prepared chopsticks for you so that you wouldn't have to eat with your hands. even though you didn't want to accept his love for you, you still couldn't afford to starve, so you began to dig in. as usual, you left the lunchbox inside his locker and tried waiting for him so that you could talk to him. but no matter how long you waited, he never showed up. you decided to give up and just return back to class.

however, one day, there wasn't any lunchbox placed on your table. you searched underneath your desk and next to your bag but there wasn't anything either. you were so used to seokjin preparing lunchboxes for you that it felt weird for him not to leave anything for you. you began to feel a little guilty as he remained so sincere to you even after you ignored and rejected him countless times whenever he tried to approach you and talk. after classes ended, you decided to visit the teacher's office.

"seonsaengnim, did anything happen to seokjin? it seems as if he didn't come to school today..."

"ah, yes. his parents called this morning to notify that he was sick."

"i see... umm... could you give me his address? i want to pay a visit to him..."

"sure. here you go." she said as she handed you a small piece of paper.

following the address, you took a taxi to seokjin's home, along with a lunchbox you prepared yourself too to express your gratitude. the house was so huge that there was a front yard and garden where many different flowers were blooming. there was even a parasol and a white wooden table with chairs placed around. you knocked on the door nervously, hoping that there would be a reply. soon after, the door opened and there was a lady dressed elegantly, whom you assumed to be seokjin's mother.

you immediately bowed 90 degrees and greeted, "annyeonghaseyo, mrs kim. i'm seokjin's schoolmate and i heard that he was sick so i came to visit him... may i come in?"

"oh, of course! seokjin's room is at the end of the hallway on the second level."

you took your shoes off and made your way in. the interior of the house was extremely fancy and extravagant. the tables were made of marble and you could tell that the sofa was made of 100% leather. once you went up the stairs, you turned right and went all the way to the room at the end. you knocked the door and turned the doorknob softly.

seokjin was sleeping on his bed peacefully with the blanket pulled all the way up to his shoulders. even though he was sleeping, he still looked very handsome. you carefully pulled a chair and placed it next to his bed. just then, he woke up.

"(y/n)? w... why are you here?"

"well, i heard that you were sick so... i was worried..."

seokjin smiled warmly and ruffled your hair.

"what's this?" he asked as he pointed at the lunchbox you were holding.

"ah... this... i made this for you. personally. i'm not sure if it tastes good though..."

"it's okay. it's always the heart that matters, right?"

you blushed shyly at his words and watched as his gobbled down every bit of the food.

"mmm... it's delicious."

"really? thanks. i'm glad that you liked it."

"(y/n)-ah..."

"yeah?"

"what do you say if i request you to cook for me everyday?"
